The Trouble with Parallel Universes is a release by Fincham Press, which is based at the University of Roehampton. That’s where I studied creative writing, and Leone Ross was one of my lecturers. That’s why I bought the book!

Effectively, this book is a short anthology of some of the work of Roehampton’s writers, an interesting mixture of poetry and prose. It’s refreshing to see stuff like this, because there was no similar facility when I was studying there. It’s a good book, and I’m glad that up-and-coming writers are receiving this kind of exposure. And you don’t have to have gone to Roehampton to love the work that’s coming out of it.

Disclaimer: While I aim to be unbiased, I received a copy of this for free to review.

The Trouble with Parallel Universes is the debut publication by the Fincham Press, the brand new publishing arm of my alma materRoehampton University. Edited by Leone Ross, Susan Greenberg and Louise Tondeur, it features writing from undergraduates, postgraduates and even lecturers themselves – as you can imagine, it’s innovative, exciting and a joy to read.

In fact, the standard of the student body’s output has risen dramatically since I was an undergraduate – keep your eyes peeled for the work by Emma Strand, Nanou Blair Gould and Michael Zand, which blew my mind a little bit.
